About The Devil's Passkey
The wife of an American playwright in Paris becomes ensnared in the seductive wiles of an American Army officer, but her devotion to her husband convinces the officer to try to extricate her from the gossip and scandal that have ensued.
Directed by Erich von Stroheim, The Devil's Passkey leans on a strong ensemble — Sam De Grasse, Una Trevelyn, Clyde Fillmore — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1920.
